Keep away from direct sunlight to help minimize fading. Lightly mist with water in dry, arid environments; excessive misting can cause mold and mildew. Avoid damp, dark, and humid conditions. This listing includes one 8-inch ball; containers, additional balls, and styling accessories shown in the photographs are sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Atmosphere\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA round boxwood form brings a clear botanical shape to a surface without needing an elaborate arrangement. The compact silhouette is easy to read from across a room, while the dense leaf texture rewards a closer look. It is a small decorative element with enough definition to anchor a bowl or complete a simple tray display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe preserved leaves create a surface made up of many overlapping edges rather than one continuous finish. Light catches the upper leaves while the spaces beneath them add depth, giving the green color variation within the rounded form. Smooth ceramics, pale stone, and woven rattan provide different but equally useful contrasts to that texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 8 inches in diameter, the ball suits a tabletop vessel with enough room to accommodate its shape. In a shallow decorative bowl, allow part of the interior to remain visible so both pieces contribute to the arrangement. If displaying it with other accents, vary their heights and leave space around the foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe simple orb shape connects easily with both traditional and contemporary furnishings. A footed vessel can give it a more formal appearance, while a low woven bowl creates a relaxed effect. Against a neutral palette, the green leaves become a distinct accent without introducing a complicated pattern or another metallic finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether used as the central element of a small display or repeated with separately purchased greenery, the ball adds natural material and visual continuity to an indoor setting. Its lasting appeal comes from the combination of a familiar botanical texture and a clear rounded outline, supported by thoughtful placement and the care appropriate to preserved foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Curator’s Styling Tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlace the ball off-center in a broad shallow bowl, leaving a visible band of the vessel around it. Pair the real leaf texture with rattan or an understated ceramic finish, and keep the display away from direct sunlight and damp conditions. The ball is sold individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBring the layered texture of real preserved boxwood to your indoor display with an eight-inch botanical orb.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top: 20px; font-size: 0.9em; font-style: italic; color: #666;\"\u003eThis item ships directly from our curated collection and is considered final sale.
